Still Trying

Still Trying is a fan-game kinetic novel based off of NomnomNami's Syrup and the Ultimate Sweet, as well as its in-development sequel, about a certain early morning in the life of a certain witch. A somewhat common disturbance makes it difficult for her to sleep, but, with some help, hopefully she can calm down and get some more rest.

CONTENT WARNINGS: a depiction of an imagined suicide attempt (skippable), behavior and discussions based on a specific personality disorder (one that involves having a "favorite person"), direct language about suicide and self-harm, direct language about self-hate and perceived rejection, manipulative behavior, strong language, physical assault (mentioned), and bullying (mentioned).

Despite the content warnings, this is meant to be a happy story. It is a bit emotionally dense, though.

There are some references to previous fanworks I've made, but it should be perfectly understandable without having played/read them.

There is no sound or music in this game, but I would recommend listening to something soft and ambient while reading.

There are around 8k words, and it takes around 30 minutes to finish reading. Hopefully it's enjoyable to those that read through it!
